Flies And Bees!

The flies, they are finding out where is sore, and the bees, they are finding out where there is honey. So two animals, they have got two business: fault-finding and collecting the good things. Similarly, there are many rascals who are simply fault-finding. Blasphemy means you have good qualities, but still, I am defaming you. The saintly person tends to overlook the bad qualities and see the good ones.

*More Dangerous Than A Snake!*

A snake can be charmed by herbs and mantra, but the man, envious, cannot be. Therefore he's more dangerous than the snake.

*Teacher And Cheater!*

A cheater is taking the place of teacher. Therefore the whole world is degraded. You can cheat others that "I am in dress of a devotee, so I am..." What is your character? What is your actual value? That has to be judged. That is called bona fide teacher.

*Modern Education!*

There was no university. The university was in the cottage-Vyasadeva. Vyasadeva was writing  all the Puranas in a cottage. So university was
there. Who can produce such literature as Vyasadeva has given? From any angle of vision, from literary point of view, from philosophical point of view-everything, so perfect, every literature, Mahabharata, Puranas and Vedanta-Veda-vyasa, he has given. So there was no need of university. It required clear brain. That was to be done by the brahminical qualifications: samo damo titiksa arjava, jnanam-vijnanam astikyam brahma-karma svabhava... [Bg. 18.42].

Where is that education? This education, technical education, how you can very nicely hammer, this will not solve the problem. They have no science, no knowledge about understanding tatha dehantara, the very first instruction of Bhagavad-gita. They are so rascals, and they are proud of their education, their universities. This is going on.

It is so nice to see how enthusiastic you are in executing this process of devotional service and how much you like your engagement there in New Vrindaban. So you continue in this way, always thinking of Krsna, chanting 16 rounds, reading the books, and doing your daily chores all on behalf of Krsna. As your devotional service becomes mature you shall see Krsna more and more, and more and more you shall realize the qualities of the holy land of Vraja.

By engaging ourselves in God’s service, we become qualified to see God. Otherwise it is not possible. We may be great scientists or scholars, but our mundane scholarship will not help us see God.

No one can understand the transcendental nature of the name, form, quality, and pastimes of Śrī Kṛṣṇa through his materially contaminated senses. Only when one becomes spiritually saturated by transcendental service to the Lord are the transcendental name, form, quality, and pastimes of the Lord revealed to him.” (Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu 1.2.234)

A Devotee Is Faultless!

We must all become ideal in our character and then people will be very impressed with such purity. A devotee is faultless. He has no flaws.

Lord Siva Becomes Very Puzzled!

It is described that by hearing the vibration of Krsna's flute, Lord Siva becomes very puzzled and begins to cry so loudly into space that the demons become vanquished and the devotees become overwhelmed with joy.

Pleasing The Deities!

The more you please the Deities with your service, the more they shall reciprocate by bestowing upon you love for Sri Sri Radha Krsna.

Srila Prabhupada's Advice To Businessmen!

If you want perfection in your business, then you must try to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Otherwise you are simply wasting your time.

*Material Means Dirty, Spiritual Means Clean!*

The more you cleanse the temple, the more you decorate the Deity, more your heart becomes cleansed and you become spiritually decorated. So cleanliness is next to godliness. Material world means dirty things and spiritual world means clean.

Sri Advaita Acarya, the leader of Navadvipa’s small but dedicated Vaisnava community, worshipped Lord Krsna with tulasi leaves and Ganga water and beseeched Him to appear. In answer to Advaita Acarya’s entreaties Lord Krsna entered the womb of Sacidevi, whose pregnancy endured for thirteen months. During this time Jagannatha Misra would sometimes see divine beings in his home, yet he was unaware that they were demigods coming to pray to Lord Caitanya.
